“Where will the next HCI breakthrough come from?”
Breakthroughs and progress in HCI can come from radical innovations, foundational research in understanding and modeling user behavior, or technology evolution in both software and hardware. It is difficult to predict which kind of work is more productive at a given time. Using text input that my colleagues and I have focused on as an example, I will informally review a few projects of all three kinds, and raise challenges and opportunities ahead.
